Modeling Public Pensions with Mathematica & Python II

Brian Drawert

Defined benefit pension plans are the predominant method of retirement compensation for state government employees. The presence of these plans, often heavily underfunded, has placed enormous pressure on state budgets.

The Wolfram Language provides a rich framework for teaching scientific and technical concepts while at the same time illustrating programming methodology for testing and analyzing ideas. We will walk through ...

Continued fractions are an ideal subject for this proof-of-concept as they constitute a subset of mathematics that is historically rich, well-defined, and nontrivial, yet at the same time manageable in ...

The Finance Platform includes a framework called Report templates that allow one to treat variables and parameters of models as variables and defined groups and so automatically generate reports based ...

Collaborative projects have resulted in several Mathematica-implemented modeling languages aimed at general-purpose biological modeling, which is a useful and topical but an indefinitely expandable goal. We update previous work on ...

Constructing interfaces with Dynamic, DynamicModule and Manipulate is nothing new, but those aren't the only Dynamic primitives available in Mathematica. In this talk, we'll identify and demonstrate some of the ...
